Introduction
1.1 Overview
This chapter describes the RADview management application for FCD-IP, and
includes the following sections:
•
Introducing RADview FCD-IP
•
The FCD-IP Workplace.
1.2 Introducing RADview FCD-IP
RADview FCD-IP enables you to monitor and manage FCD-IP. FCD-IP is an E1/T1
or E1/T1 over SHDSL, fractional integrated access device (IAD), which enables
service providers to bundle data, voice and IP access services over a single E1 or
T1 access line. Additionally, FCD-IP can be used for management applications in
cellular or SDH environments. An integrated router supports IP/IPX routing and
transparent bridging. The FCD-IP supports an optional internal 4-port Ethernet/Fast
Ethernet switch, which can be installed in place of the LAN ports.

Chapter 1 Introduction
1.3 The FCD-IP Workplace
The RADview FCD-IP main window displays FCD-IP front and back panels,
including all LEDs and interfaces. You can select most of the displayed interfaces in
each section, or select the entire device for system configuration. A blue border
marks the selected item.
Note
To select the device itself, click on any area outside of the ports.
Figure 1-1. FCD-IP Main Window
When an interface is selected, two views are available:
•
Edit View (Edit mode) is used for configuring the interface. When configuring
the interface, the configuration is stored in the management station until you
update the device. When you update the device, the configuration is saved on
the device itself.
•
Agent View (Agent mode) displays the current state of the interface.
The current mode is indicated by “E.#” or “A.#” at the top-left of the dialog box.
The menus and the available menu options vary, depending on the item selected
in the main window (the device or one of its ports), and the current mode (Edit or
Agent). Certain actions can only be performed in one of the modes. For example,
the link mode can be configured only in the Edit mode and switching traffic
between links can only be performed in Agent mode.

Note
Certain TDM ports can be displayed in both Edit and Agent Views. Configuration is
performed in the Edit mode. In Agent View, the parameters are Read-Only.
To switch between Edit and Agent views:
1. Select the appropriate Link.
2. Switch the view by doing one of the following:
Click the Edit/Agent View button on the toolbar
or
From the Window menu, select Edit View/Agent View to switch to
Edit/Agent View.

A rectangular grid displays the time slot assignments. Each row and each column
represents the possible connections of a specific port.
Since all ports are connected to MAIN E1/T1 port, the top row shows the TS
assignments of the MAIN E1/T1. For the MAIN E1, there are 31 Time Slots. For the
MAIN T1, there are 24 Time Slots.
Colors, letters and guides indicate information about the time slots and ports
represented in the grid. Their meanings are described below. In addition a ToolTip appears when the mouse cursor passes over a row, indicating the
